Children's Poem: "PRAYER, Dedicated to Lauren"

by Richard Taylor, March 26, 2004

Introduction: My niece Lauren was learning basic prayer, in England; she was six and is now age eight; and she asked me to write her a Prayer. I have made the Prayer a simple one of a child talking to God.

"PRAYER, Dedicated to Lauren"

Oh Father I love you and adore
You make my life complete,
And each new day I love you more
My heart and soul to keep.

And all the days that I may live
For you who made the sea and shore,
In the love and mercy that you give
I will walk for evermore.

Oh Father I love you and adore
Though those gifts I may not merit,
My needs you know though I ask for more
And your love lifts up my spirit.

And each new day when I awake
I raise my eyes above,
Remembering that for my sake
You gave your eternal love.

Oh Father I love you and adore
You make my life complete,
And each new day I love you more
My heart and soul to keep.
